ABOUT YAWANAWA:
One of the greatest needs in the Yawanawa village Mutum, led by Chief Matsini, is access to clean drinking water. The community has gotten all its drinking water traditionally from the river Rio Gregorio, but due to the cities and industries that are getting closer, the rivers are polluted and not safe to drink. The Brazilian government has provided a well for the villages, but the supply is limited, and the water is not at all clean enough to meet proper standards of drinking water. We wish to give the Yawanawa people of Mutum a hand with improving their quality of water and thus their standard of living.
ABOUT AIXA AMANKAY:
Born in Neiva Huila, Colombia on December 23, 1975.
From a young age, Aixa’s interests have revolved around the research, recovery, understanding, and sharing of the ancient wisdom and medicines of the South and North American indigenous communities. This work and research has taken her from the heart of the Amazonian rain forests, to the peaks of the Andes, to the plains of South Dakota, to the pyramids in Central America – in order to directly understand the use of natural medicines and ancient healing methods.
She is a devoted Sun dancer, Moon dancer and Medicine Woman, who works to awaken the consciousness and the fulfillment of the prophecies of the Condor Eagle, bringing the understanding of
all Native American traditions to blend in harmony and respect.
Aixa is an Energetic Healer, Certified Massage Therapist, Herbalist, Birth and Postpartum Doula, Placenta Specialist, and Doula Trainer, who has dedicated the last 20 years of her studies to the ancient traditions related to healing womanhood.
Aixa was a board member of the Inti Wayna Foundation (Children of the Sun) in Peru, Colombia and the United States and of the Greenway Foundation in Massachusetts, USA. These institutions support and encourage young people from the Amazon to study and learn from their elders and medicine teachers.
She was co- founder of the Fundación Inti Wasi- Casa del Sol (Inti Wasi-House of the Sun Foundation) in Colombia. The mission of this foundation is to promote the local Native communities' economic, social and spiritual development through the recovery of their traditional ways.
As an ordained Minister of the Native American Church and the Universalist Church and Founder of the Inti Runa Native American Church (NAC), Aixa performs traditional native social blessings such as weddings, blessing ways, moon planting, coming of age, naming ceremonies, sweat lodges, Traditional Medicine Ceremonies and others.
At the moment she is the Main Minister of Inti Runa NAC in South Florida, as well as leading and organizing several national and international annual gatherings in the USA, Colombia, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Central America, Canada and Europe, such as Vision Quests, Moondance, and Condor Eagle Gatherings
